This 1976 Ford F100 Custom Long Wheel base with 3 speed automatic transmission Pickup is certainly an unusual find, especially the way its been maintained overall and a thumping 302 5.0 L under the hood. With a great color combination and no signs of hard labor in its past, it's a unique opportunity to pick up an overlooked piece of Ford history.

You've seen other mid-70s Ford pickups clattering and rattling down the interstate, held together with wire and duct tape, but you've never seen one this nice. From the sparkling blue paint, this truck has been well maintained and beautifully preserved. There is a matching chrome rear and front bumper and the only modifications include the polished bed rails and chrome window guards.

The blue interior offers fabric carpets and leather seats that give this custom an upscale feel. Everything remains in great condition with very, very little wear, even the carpets. The three speed automatic transmission is a throwback to an earlier era, but it moves through the gears neatly and fits this truck's personality just fine. The options list is light, but that's how it was with pickup trucks in the days before they were luxury cruisers. A full complement of gauges keeps an eye on the engine and they're all in top operating condition.

Ford's rugged and torquey 302 cubic inch V8 provides motivation.. Of course, it's hard to leave a Ford V8 alone, so it wears a new Holley carburetor atop an Edelbrock intake, although both components have been hidden under an open-element air cleaner that looks like it was nabbed from a 427 Galaxie. . With a swell of torque and a wonderful sound from the dual exhaust system, you'll enjoy piloting this big truck as much as any vintage muscle car, and performance is quite good. As you'd expect, the chassis is almost rust-free, showing only signs of age, but not abuse. Vehicle runs and drives excellent.

Here is a list of upgrades to the truck:

302 5.0L V8

New Holley 4 barrel carburetor

MSD ignition module

Super blaster II ignition coil

MSD spark plug wires

New Holley Chrome Breather and Air Filter

New Tuff Stuff One wire 100 Amp alternator

Chrome molding all around (missing a small piece by the drivers door)

Toyota, Ford decide to end hybrid collaboration before it starts

Tue, 23 Jul 2013

Not all so-called Memorandum of Understanding pacts end in actual collaborations. For instance, after a two-year "feasibility study," Toyota and Ford have just announced that they will not be developing hybrid systems for use in light trucks and SUVs as previously planned, and the two automakers will instead continue to develop their own hybrid technology independently.
The would-be collaboration was first announced in August of 2011, and would have seen a rear-wheel-drive hybrid platform that would "improve the efficiency of trucks and SUVs while still allowing them to be driven in the way customers expect," according to our initial post on the topic.
Keep in mind that this announcement isn't to say we shouldn't expect hybrid pickups and SUVs from the two automakers, but that they probably aren't coming very soon - Ford says it will have a system "before the end of this decade" and we haven't heard much from Toyota on the hybrid truck front since the 2008 A-BAT Concept (pictured above) - and that they will not share any components between them (and they never have, for what it's worth).

Your official Ford Transit specs are here, $29,565* to start

Wed, 04 Jun 2014

Ford has released the full list of pricing and specs on its new Transit, the replacement for the long-lived E-Series cargo van. Prices are set to start at $29,565 and can increase rapidly from there, depending on length, engine and wheelbase, among other options.
Let's talk first about those new engines. The base is the familiar 3.7-liter, naturally aspirated V6. It boasts 275 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque and can return up to 14 miles per gallon in the city and 19 mpg on the highway. This engine can also be adapted to run on LPG or compressed natural gas. Of course, there are better alternatives, for a price, the first of which is Ford's well-received, 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6. It packs 310 hp and a best-in-class 400 lb-ft of torque (available at just 2,500 rpm) while matching the naturally aspirated engine in both city and highway fuel economy.
Then, there's the diesel. With a 3.2-liter, five-cylinder diesel mill at its disposal, the Transit generates 350 lb-ft between 1,500 and 2,500 rpm, along with 185 hp. This engine hasn't been rated by the EPA, although we'd be really, really surprised if it didn't handily best either of the gas-powered engines in fuel efficiency. A six-speed automatic is standard, regardless of engine.

Ford, Samsung shack up to bring regen braking to non-hybrid models [w/video]

Mon, 09 Jun 2014

Ford must be desperate to get itself ready for the beach this summer because it is really trying to get into shape. Shortly after unveiling the Lightweight Concept that cut the weight of a Fusion down to that of a Fiesta, it's now the rest of the line's turn for improvement. The company is wrapping up a 10-year research project aimed at developing next-gen automotive batteries to improve efficiency.
Ford claims that 70 percent of its lineup will have stop/start tech by 2017. The key to this massive proliferation is its new dual-battery system that combines a lithium-ion battery with a lead-acid one and regenerative braking. The setup works by harvesting braking energy and converting it to electricity. When the vehicle stops, the engine shuts off, but the Li-ion battery has enough juice to keep the accessories running. The engine starts up again as drivers take their foot off the brake. The layout would mean less wasted gas while idling. It's already available on Ford hybrids and is somewhat similar to the i-Eloop capacitor-based system from Mazda.
The bigger challenge is tuning the regenerative braking right. While hybrid drivers may be a little more adventurous, when it comes to getting a hang of regen braking, conventional buyers might not be so open-minded. The systems have a tendency to be a little grabby at first and then taper off at very low speeds. Ford needs to make sure it's just right to avoid turning off buyers.
